I am going out with someone that is a year younger than me and no one has really said anything to me about it yet but i have a feeling they will...i cannot stand when people continuously say crap to me about it...is it really wrong that hes a year younger?
You honestly shouldn't caRe what OTHER people think; aRe you ALWAYS going to live YOUR life foR OTHER people???? TO HELL WITH OTHER PEOPLE!!!
You need to woRRie LESS about what otheR people may say oR think and woRRie MORE on what keeps YOU happie.. and what feels Right to YOU, and if that means being with this guy.. then BY ALL MEANS!! :D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
pink_paperheart answered Monday June 27 2005, 2:39 am: Well sometimes it depends on how old you are, which I have no idea how old you or he are. When you're a teenager a year younger is not too bad, but when you're talking 3 or 4 years younger it's a bit of a problem. When someone is 18 and they're dating a 14 or 15 year old not only is that illegal(under certain circumstances), but also the maturity levels are very different. When you're in your 20's and beyond it's a whole different world and people by then usually realize what dating and love really is.
MeAnTtOBex33 answered Sunday June 26 2005, 11:42 pm: noo not at all.. i have friends that are going out with people younger than them.. when one of my friends was in 6th grade, she went out with a 4th grader.. and now she goes out with an 8th grader and shes in 9th so its no big deal at all.. and if you two really like eachother then the others and what they say wont matter. hope i helped <3*Nicole [ MeAnTtOBex33's advice column | Ask MeAnTtOBex33 A Question ]
K1timeatbandcamp answered Sunday June 26 2005, 11:09 pm: not at all. Look at your parents. If their relationship is anything like my parents relationship, then there is probably at least 2 or 3 years of a difference.
But then again, it depends how old you are. A grade 9 dating a grade 7 is odd. A grade 11 dating a grade 10 or 9, not so odd. [ K1timeatbandcamp's advice column | Ask K1timeatbandcamp A Question ]
iSLAND_x_KiiSS answered Sunday June 26 2005, 9:53 pm: No, I don`t think it`s a very big deal. Nobody has said anything yet, so it`s not a problem at the moment.. But if they do, don`t pay any attention. If you really like this boy, it shouldn`t matter what age he is, or what anyone else says to you. good luck =) [ iSLAND_x_KiiSS's advice column | Ask iSLAND_x_KiiSS A Question ]
karenR answered Sunday June 26 2005, 7:14 pm: My husband is a year younger than me and we have been married 30 years. I think a year younger is perfect! If they give you crap just smile at them like they don't know what they're missing and don't reply to it. We know good guys when we have 'em.
lilvhcougar09 answered Sunday June 26 2005, 6:55 pm: i've gone out with guys who were a year younger then me and people have made fun of me.. but i've got used to just being like well you know what i don't really care what you say.. at least i have someone who cares about me.. and i care about them.. don't rely on what other people think [ lilvhcougar09's advice column | Ask lilvhcougar09 A Question ]

BayBay2daWayWay09 answered Sunday June 26 2005, 4:51 pm: no way! being a year older than a guy you're going out with is NOT a big deal. if you like each other you should stay together no matter what other ppl say. one time a freind of mine went out with a guy 2 years younger than her, now THAT is bad. I don't think theres anything wrong with your relationship with this guy.
hope I helped! xXannaXx [ BayBay2daWayWay09's advice column | Ask BayBay2daWayWay09 A Question ]
orphans answered Sunday June 26 2005, 4:06 pm: hey, that's not a problem. the girl i like is a year and ten months younger than me, so almost two years but i'm not going to let that stop me. cause when you're over the age ot 20 it doesn't matter what the age difference is as long as you care about each other. why it matters at this age is because people worry too much about others and not themselves. my parents are 8 years apart in age. but it doesn't matter. be with who you want...as long as they're not like 11 and you're like 30...that's just gross.

ALEXandADRIANA answered Sunday June 26 2005, 3:52 pm: There is nothing wrong with going out with someone only a year younger than you. The only problem you might face is the maturity difference between the two of you. You might begin to realize is a little bit too immature for you but of course that is not their fault. However, this person might be mature for their age and you will have no problem. If you really like this person then do not worry about the age and what people may think. The important thing is that you enjoy their company and have a good time. If it makes you feel any better we knew a girl who was a senior in high school that dated a sophomore boy and they got a long fine for a while. Other girls started doing that after she did. We prefer older boys just because of the whole maturity thing. If you feel your guy is on your level then do not worry about his age and have a good time. Sorry this is so long! Goodluck [ ALEXandADRIANA's advice column | Ask ALEXandADRIANA A Question ]
SoInToYoUx0x answered Sunday June 26 2005, 3:45 pm: no a year isnt a big deal.. dont worry about what people say. forget them i mean ur one going out with the guy not them. it is your life not there you can do whatever you want. hope this helps.

CoRyIzMuHLoVeRaNdFrIeNd answered Sunday June 26 2005, 3:33 pm: It doesnt matter. Yes, people will say dumb stuff and say stuff that will piss you off, but, dont we all get that? I mean, when me and my boyfriend hooked up, all day, i swear, every1 in my grade came up and asked if we were going out because if I go by stereotypes, hes a "jock" and i hang with the "ghettos" i guess... idk, thats just what we call em. So all day i got it. Someone will always say somethin bad, but as long as you both like each other, youll be able to overcome it!!

mushoku answered Sunday June 26 2005, 3:27 pm: How old are you? If he is a year younger than you and you're, say, 5-8, yes, it's a problem - there's a hugs maturity difference. Now, let's say you're middle school, it's not a problem, though the maturity difference will probably cause problems. If you're high school, it might cause problems. If you're older than high school, then you need to do some self-evaluation and define your goals/values/et cetera, because you shouldn't be asking this.

JustAskAlli answered Sunday June 26 2005, 3:22 pm: Definitely Not! Dont mind what people say, if they say something mean to offend you, that means they have something wrong with themselves.
mystical_breeze answered Sunday June 26 2005, 3:15 pm: No! A year younger does not mean anything except the fact that you were born earlier. If you really care about him, still see him 'cause it's your descision on who to date. I mean, if I cared about someone a year younger then me who liked me too, I would go for it because he could be a really nice person. When people talk crap to you about it, just explain to them you really like him, or just give them the cold shouler (ignore them).
Hope I helped,
